on a rainy or semi cold day after about 5 minutes every inch of window is fogged up and the seatbelt digging into my neck.

I've had the 06 coupe for about 2 months only now and some things are sticking out as annoying.

- The seat belt
- The inevitable OC issue that doesn't seem to be resolved, or ever will be..
- The inevitable valve cover issue
- Seats aren't bolstered well enough compared to the 1 series I just tried and the lumbar support isn't great
- BOSE sound system sucks
- Rattles and only 26,000km in
- Cheap clearcoat and paint
- The freaking dipstick
- The clutch feel seems to change a lot
- The horrendeous gas mileage, even for a sports coupe

What do I like?
- How it drives overall is pretty good
- How it looks overall, the lines, the wheels, the shape
- Stock exhaust sounds fantastic
- Can actually use the backseat and trunk for larger things
- Decent power

Overall it's a very average car, which is fine for a daily driver.

It's a totally different world my friend. I've learned quite a lot since I got the thing.. more about performance and tuning. I'm also working on doing my own tuning right now. It's just totally different. The G was sooo much nicer to daily drive and cruise in of course.. and it was bigger... and I think better looking. There are lots of plus sides to the G. It had a lot more options and was made better all around inside and out. The Subaru is directed all to performance. It's apparent in the new models they have the skills to make nice interiors.. but mine is pretty hideous (it's not that bad.. just cheap and bland)

But it's hard to get bored with 300 awhp

Haha yeah.. it's what I expected when I made the transition. I'll tell you this though.. I spent most of the money I got from my G on mods for scooby... and I should've just kept the G... I miss it already!! haha but I'll get another one. hopefully a 2010+ g37xS here in about 3 years

Now that it's in the mid 60's, I have no problems with the amount of heat that the G generates. I don't even have to run the heater.

I still hate that little space between the seat and the center consoles. Had to grab some chopstick and some tape to grab a few items that fell in the poon hole. Trying stick fist it didn't work.

HOLY SHlT! ME too!! I dropped my cell phone and when I slid the seat forward, I heard a CRUNCH...
The second time it happened, I was lucky that two kids were walking by and one of them reached under the seat and got it for me. Now I keep a soft plastic hanger under my seat, just in case.

are all the rattles a coupe thing or something? the only noises my car makes are the driver's seat creaking and maybe the occasional suspension related creak and I have 81000 miles
